Well - WOW.

I have only one thing to say.

"SPARTANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Just brilliant.  Fabulously stylised mayhem. I'm quite in love with Leonidas, plus the beautiful son.  Xerxes was incredible, and the fight scenes just amazing.  I can't wait for the DVD.  And SO MANY LOVELY ABS.

But of course, I only watched it for historical interest. *cough*

But there were funny moments that hit me hard from time to time.  When Leonidas started to climb the mountain to get to the priests I whispered to Kerry "Contender, you will start on my first whistle"

The Oliphaunts were just too LOTR!  I read on a historians site that there were no elephants, but hey, who cares. There were ABS!  It also reminded me of the battle scene on Hoth.  OMG I'm such a bloody geek.

I wasn't sure what the Elephant man was doing there, either.  And when did Faramir get hot?

And GIP. just because.  I'm quite sure I have enough Geeks on my list to get this.  Thank you to Henri who gave me the idea.



Finally - I was going to have a damned good rant about a post on Romancing the Blog about how people can't read Romance books with adultery in them, but [livejournal.com profile] gehayi has done it far far better than I could ever do. I'd just end up getting cross.
